Hurry and Dispatch.
Philadelphia Ledger.

Philadelphia Ledger.
Among the many causes of poor
and inefficient work is the habit of
hurry, which takes possession ofsome
busy people. Having or imagining
they have more to do in given time
than can be done properly, they grow
confused, agitated, and nervous
and, under this pressure, they pro-
ceeded with the work in hand with
out requisite deliberation and care,
perhaps emitting parts of it-some-
times important parts-and produc-
ing at last an imperfect and inferior
performance, which can neither be
permanent nor satisfactory.
There is hardly any employment,
from the simplest manual work to
the most complex and difficult men
tai labor, that does not suffer from
this cause. The dwelling house in
process of building is to be finished
at a certain time. With proper fore
thought and system it would have
been done, but the time approaches
and the work is still incomplete. The
future occupants are impatient, the
contractors anxious, the workmena are
driven, the work is hurried through,
and annoyance, discomfort, and some
times danger ensue, and repairs are
soon found necessary. The business
man undertakes more than he can
manage, the days are not long
enough for his needs, he is agitated
by the constant pressure, driven by
conflicting claims, his business suffers
for the want of a clear and cool head,
his health suffers from continual and
unrelaxed eXertion, his family suffers
from his deterioration, and general
disaster ensues. The physician,
with many other calls to make, hur.
ries through the visit, ~neglecting
some important symptom, and his
patient dies; the lawyer hurries
through his plea, and loses his case
the preacher hurries through the
preparation of his sermon and fails
to make an impression the artist
hurries on his picture to completion
and his best conception is not there
the teacher hurries through a pre-
scribed course of instruction, and the
class is left destitute of the more i'm
portant elements of knowledge. L
is not too much to say that a large
proportion of the unhappiness, thu
ignorance, the loss Of property, anC
even the loss of life, that is endured
in the world is to be directly traced
to the hurry and drive which charac
terizes so much of the labor perform
ed.
Many persons not only drift int
these hurried ways, but pride them
selves upon them. They boast O
their speed, and contrast it with tn
, slower measures of their more DELHI
crate neighbors. They fatter them
t selves upon their dispatch, and hole
, themselves of more value on that &C
count. SlownesS in work, lingerin,
t or lettering over what is to be done
I, is not to be recommended. On tn
, contrary, energy and vigor will
prompt the healthy and industriou
man to labor steadily and rapidly
while neglecting nothing that i
l needed to perfect his work. Blu
9 this is very different from the agitat
ed and excited hurry which has bee
mentioned, and which is to be DEF
D recated.
